This extension works great, but links containing UTM are stored in the history. Would it be possible to change/remove said links to get rid of UTM?

Thank you so much! It's always a pain to remove those before sharing links.

Makes invalid URL when the URL starts with "?utm_" and includes non-utm parameters.
